- Right. Final Copy II (and 1.3...) while not even comming close to
- Word for Windows in features does an awesome priting job. And that's
- what counts in the end. Final Copy generates totally fantastic output on
- my Cannon BJ10e, laser quality. The only draw back is you are forced to use
- Final Copys proprietary Nimbus-Q fonts. Luckily a pretty good set of
- fonts are included with Final Copy, so this isn't an issue (for me at least).
- In addition there are fonts packs available from Softwood.
